Haiku by Museleon

I spent a lot of 2016 in a strange limbo and was on the verge of giving up my music after 20 years but I found I couldn't give up the one thing that had been a huge part of my life. So, I decided to take a step back and begin to listen to the world again and to keep myself sane, I set myself a monthly sound challenge.

Based on Haiku's in a favourite book, I set about creating tiny sound portraits on a monthly basis using found sounds, electronic music and field recordings. The 12 short sound haiku's were originally uploaded to SoundCloud during 2017 and were my year in sound.
Recently I revisited the project and decided they actually sounded like a collection and together as a whole, reflect the passing of time and the seasons.


As Museleon, I am really interested in the tiny sounds, the anomalies and the mistakes, as together with a self imposed limit on processing, they can create beautiful patterns, rhythms and sounds, which are often best listened to through headphones.


All sounds used are in the public domain via the Freesound community together with my own field recordings, sounds and music.

Information about and artwork can be found on each individual track.

Headphone music where every sound has a meaning,
every sound has its place.

Immersive sonic worlds and idiosyncratic electronic.
